I work in manufacturing and I have custom fitted in-ear hearing protection for the job. My shokz allow me to listen to music while protecting my hearing. I also prefer to wear them when I drive. I greatly enjoy being able to listen to music while being able to hear my surroundings.

I love these! I've never been able to wear ear buds/inside the earphones cause my ear canals are so narrow. they also dampen sounds around me. None of them ever stayed put. These stay in place and I also hear much better sound. The only downside is that they aren't adjustable. I wish I could make them tighter so they hugged my head better. I find that when I press on the "speaker" it is clearer and louder. I wasn't sure what the "mini" version meant, so got the regular ones. All in all, I love them.

I have been wearing these for 2 years (aftershokz). I have returned 2 pair and own 2 pair. First failed with vibration and 2nd failed with no charging. Warranty was great and easy. Note ** it's buried in the paperwork but very important, do not leave them on charge long after full as it damages the battery. Could be what happened to no 2. I wear mine riding the motorcycle and on the side by side and every other place. I have little hearing with my right ear but heart music fantastic on that side with these. I get about 14 hours if I'm not talking on the phone and only listening to music. Offered a pair to a legally dead person and she now listens to music as never before. My ENT now recommends them based on my love.

I borrowed a set of these from a coworker after he heard that my hearing had deteriorated. Ear drum was ruptured and bone damaged and surgery scheduled but sitting in a cubicle was no fun… I put these on and oh my God I could actually make out detail in the music I love and actually could hear in stereo again!! Also found an app that just piped sounds from my phone mic back into the earphones, I feel like I’m some kind of super human! Sounds all around me!

I love being able to listen to books on audible while out walking in the rain. I can hear what is happening around me so I'm not startled by people running past. I leave my shokz on all day long. Unlike earbuds that feel uncomfortable I forget I'm wearing my Shokz. I recommend them to everyone I know.

I have a very hard time with any type of ear plug and have never been happy with airpods or any comparable brands. A colleague of mine has Shokz and raved about them so he let me borrow them for a bit to try them out. I immediately ordered my own and wear them all day. They are GREAT!

my son-in-law introduced me to your bone conducting headphones. we are both hard of hearing. I cried when I listened through his pair. the sound depth, quality and variations were incredible. I ordered myself a pair within the week. Been hard of hearing as a child and now at 72 even more so. I am hoping to get a pair of bone conducting hearing aides but they do not seem as developed as the headphones are yet. An amazing product and they charge up so quickly on my laptop.

This is my second Shokz headset. I am replacing the first headset after three years. It still works but has started to vibrate due to being banged around a lot. I use the headset for almost everything...work meetings, personal cell calls, listening to podcasts while doing house / yard chores, and for music. Oddly, I don't use the headset while running (I don't need the distraction, I guess). Regardless, I love my Shokz and the new OpenRun mini fits and sounds even better than my original Trekz Air. I like the new magnetic USB charging method. Keep up the good work!

These are great for running alone or while running where there is heavy traffic. The battery stays fully charged a long time before it dips to medium charge. I like how I can look on my phone to see how much battery life is left, too. My only complaint is that they are a little clumsy to get over my ears when I'm already wearing sunglasses and a hat. The pressure in front of my ears took some used getting to, but I barely notice it while running.

Great quality and it’s nice to be able to be aware of your surroundings while still being able to listen to your music, podcast, calls, etc. Their minimalistic design makes them almost non existent when wearing them as well. I couldn’t imaging using anything else now.
